Own Network Pvt Ltd.’s Optical Fiber Cable (OFC) services are a critical component of modern telecom infrastructure, enabling high-speed, reliable, and secure data transmission. Unlike traditional copper cables, OFC uses light signals to transmit data, offering superior bandwidth, low signal loss, and immunity to electromagnetic interference.

High Bandwidth: Supports data rates up to terabits per second, ideal for 5G, IoT, cloud computing, and data centers.

Low Signal Loss: Loses only ~3% signal over 100 meters compared to 94% for copper, enabling long-distance transmission (70–150 km without repeaters).

Immunity to Interference: Unaffected by electromagnetic interference, ensuring reliable communication.

Security: Difficult to tap, enhancing data security.

Durability: Resistant to harsh environments (moisture, UV, chemicals), suitable for diverse applications.

Types of OFC Used in Telecom

Single-Mode Fiber: For long-distance, high-speed applications like backbone networks.

Multi-Mode Fiber: For shorter distances, such as LANs or data centers.

Duct Cables: For underground backbone routes.

Aerial/ADSS Cables: For pole installations, self-supporting with high tensile strength.

FTTH (Fiber to the Home): For last-mile connectivity to homes.

Armored/Unarmored Cables: For rugged or standard environments.

OFC Installation Services

Trenching: Traditional method for laying cables in dug trenches.

Trenchless: Uses horizontal directional drilling for minimal surface disruption.

In-Building (IBD) Solutions: Enhances coverage and reduces costs for telecom operators.

Maintenance and Management: Ensures secure installations with municipal approvals.

Leading Providers in India
